WDR 5 philosophy special – Contagious thinking. Looking ahead: how we succeed in change
with Anja Backhaus Carolin Courts Elif Şenel Jürgen Wiebicke Ralph Erdenberger
Live radio broadcast on WDR5
We remain in dialogue when world events make us uneasy and the war in Ukraine puts old convictions to the test. We manage to conduct constructive debates when familiar axioms of sex and gender, of language, of how we deal with one another are in flux. When attributions become impositions, it is high time to renew our efforts to arrive at mutual understandings. Some feel tyrannised by minorities, disputes are conducted at a hurtful level – there is another way. For one day, we will come together to consider how we can resolve our problems, how to restore and nurture community and togetherness.
